GAAP earnings of $0.05 per share and non-GAAP earnings of $0.15 per share in the fourth quarter

ROCK HILL, South Carolina – February 28, 2017 - 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE: DDD) announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2016.

For the fourth quarter of 2016, the company reported revenue of $165.9 million compared to $183.4 million in the fourth quarter of the previous year. The company reported fourth quarter GAAP earnings of $0.05 per share compared to a loss of $5.32 per share in the prior year and non-GAAP earnings of $0.15 per share compared to $0.19 per share in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Demand from industrial customers combined with growth in software and healthcare services were not enough to offset the impact of weaker sales of professional printers and on-demand services, resulting in a 10% decrease in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to the fourth quarter of 2015.

"Continued demand for our production printers and materials reaffirms our belief that our industry is at an inflection point in the transition from prototyping to production," commented Vyomesh Joshi (VJ), Chief Executive Officer, 3D Systems.

Gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 50.0%. Gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2015, excluding charges related to discontinued consumer products, was 47.7%.

For the fourth quarter of 2016, operating expenses were $78.8 million. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $88.9 million, excluding goodwill and intangible impairment charges. Compared to the prior year, SG&A expenses decreased 13% to $57.8 million on lower stock based compensation, amortization and legal expenses. R&D expenses decreased 6% over the prior year period to $21.1 million.

"We are seeing clear progress in our initiatives to drive operational excellence and establish an appropriate cost structure," commented John McMullen, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We still have a lot of work to do, but we are making improvements in our key processes, infrastructure and operations. We expect continued positive cash generation and improved profitability while we make investments in IT, go to market and innovation."

The company generated $18.7 million of cash from operations during the fourth quarter and $56.9 million in the full year 2016, and ended the year with $184.9 million of cash on hand compared to $155.6 million at the end of 2015.

For the full year 2016, revenue decreased 5% to $633.0 million compared to $666.2 million in 2015, which included approximately $20 million of revenue from consumer products that the company discontinued at the end of 2015. The company reported a GAAP loss of $0.35 per share for 2016 compared to a loss of $5.85 per share in 2015 and non-GAAP earnings of $0.46 per share compared to non-GAAP earnings of $0.27 per share in 2015.

"We see tremendous market opportunities for 3D production. With focused innovation and execution, we are delivering solutions for key verticals, use case by use case to drive profitable growth and make 3D production real," concluded Joshi.
